HUAWEI TECHNOLOGIES CO., LTD.

RTN 980

The RTN 980 is a new generation integrated microwave transmission system developed
by Huawei, which can be installed easily and configured flexibly. It supports the
convergence of up to 20 radio links, and supports multiple protection schemes. The RTN
980 provides a generic platform for TDM/Hybrid/Packet/Route microwave transmission.
The platform provide various service interfaces, large bandwidth, and easy scalability.
The RTN 980 fully meets the needs of enterprise microwave transmission networks as
well as smooth evolution towards the future.

Architecture

The RTN 980 adopts a modular chassis with 5 U

height. It belongs to Huawei RTN 900 split IP
microwave series that consist of an indoor unit
(IDU) and an outdoor unit (ODU). The RTN 980
provides 14 slots to flexibly support multiple
service boards and convergence of up to 20 radio
directions.

Applications
The RTN 980 is located at a node site to aggregate a large number of microwave links
in multiple directions. It suits to be deployed in vertical industries with easy installation
and configuration. It has been widely deployed in the ICT infrastructures in government,
ISP, power, broadcasting and other vertical industries.
